A cop love triangle ended in disaster after an officer reportedly walked in on his colleague wife with a fellow policeman. Master Sgt. Emmanuel de Asis, 55, was reportedly shot dead Nov. 28 at the house of Lt. Col. Rhoderick Pascua in Taguig, Philippines. Pascua reportedly caught his wife, who is also a police officer, and De Asis in the throes of an extramarital affair. Pascua admitted fatally shooting De Asis in front of his wife before buring his remains in the Pascua family’s yard. Colleagues found De Asis’ remains last week. The plot thickened when the victim’s son, also a police officer, said the killing had been planned for months. Police Capt. Peter de Asis stated that his father had been set up and had actually been abducted and tortured. “I will use all my trainings and skills as a qualified special forces operator to hunt all of you. My whole family will not stop until you are all inside a prison cell,” he declared in a Facebook post Friday.
